A mother’s love can’t be compared to anything else in the world. It is unconditional and infinite. One mother turkey took full responsibility for the safe keeping of all her babies, and when she guided them out to the road, she was extra careful. Her maternal instincts swung into full throttle when her chicks ended up in a place that could be quite dangerous.

Tara Dodd was able to capture this incredible moment and explained that these turkeys have actually been living near her streets for a few years now. She sees these birds every day, yet what the mother turkey does to save her chicks will never fail to make an impression. When Tara took her camera out to film these cute little chicks, she had no clue what she would end up seeing them all do.

As they followed their mother out to the streets, it was obvious that they not only followed her steps, but all of her commands as well. They were still very young, but they were able to interpret and obey her commands. This is one of the common, yet amazing ways of Mother Nature. The chicks ran for cover as soon as their mom gave them a single signal!

Thankfully, she was able to film the whole thing. It’s an amazing glimpse into the mind of any mother!
